Bad Precedent
by digby
I can’t help but feel a tiny bit confused by all this righteous rightwing aversion to “rewarding lawbreaking” with an amnesty program for immigrants. The argument seems to be that it sends a bad message to allow people to get away with unlawful behavior by legalizing it after the fact. What’ll they tell the children?
Of course, it all depends on who’s doing the breaking, doesn’t it?
